7 Steps to Increase Online Traffic with StumbleUpon

One of my favorite tools just got better!

When 9:15 a.m. rolls around, you can be almost certain to find me swathed in an oversized sweater and hunched intently over my laptop. What's got me so riveted? StumbleUpon – that's what. It's a daily inspiration, spattering my wakening brain with plenty of ideas and information. Then, yesterday, it got even better. I discovered that StumbleUpon is actually a way to increase traffic to your website.

After reading several articles on the subject, I think I can break this down into a few simple(ish) steps.

1) Get started with StumbleUpon.Duh. If you aren't already, you need to get set-up with StumbleUpon. I recommend that, before you start trying to get sophisticated with it, just immerse yourself in it for a few hours. Set up your interests and start stumbling. I just hope you'll be able to pull yourself away long enough to complete the rest of the steps.
